The Stainless Desk Set (2002) applies the principles of good design to household objects that, though deserving, don’t always receive such thoughtful attention. The rational, pared down Stainless Measuring Tape offers straight-forward functionality with a look that can be proudly displayed on a desktop. It’s compact size makes it easy to throw in a purse or briefcase as well. This automatically locking measuring tape offers 118 inches or 300cm of tape and a button for easy retraction. Combine with the Stainless Tape Dispenser, Stapler and Notepaper Holder for a uniform collection of desktop architecture that has a consistent scale and a satisfying weightiness.
